SPECIALIST SPEAKERS ON PROPAGANDA, DECEPTION, DEEPFAKES AND FAKE NEWS
With the controversy over the picture of the Princess of Wales and her children, fake news itself is back in the news!
No-one had heard the words ‘fake news’ until well into the twenty-first century. But disinformation has been part of propaganda, politics, and warfare, for centuries. King Edward I of England made ‘false news’ an offence eight hundred years ago! Today personalisation via social media, and the industrialisation of the creation of dubious content is commonplace in the ‘post-truth’ news environment. And the coming era of deep-fake video content could well lead us to mistrust almost all media with profound outcomes for trust within society.
Specialist Speakers on fake news deal with the social and political implications as well the technical and journalistic aspects of its creation. Roll up, roll up, read all about it!
